Objectif The AguaSociAL joint exchange programme aims to strengthen research cooperation and knowledge sharing between Brazil and Europe within the water related sciences. This venture will provide on-site training related to the rationale and benefits of water treatment techniques and technologies combined with social innovation approaches. AguaSociAL will seek to investigate and support community-driven development techniques and technologies for improving access to Water. This approach responds to the Europe 2020 Strategy of ‘promoting social innovation for the most vulnerable populations, with a particular emphasis on the provision of innovative education and training”, AguaSociAL will facilitate R&D activities that focus on the Amazonian Region, and will explore a range of issues, including: environmental protection; socio-economic factors and sustainable development, with a specific emphasis on water treatment and social innovations by local communities (especially vulnerable ones). Research will be undertaken to identify existing and potential water treatment, reuse, recycling and sanitation technologies that are socially accepted and community owned. Such approach should enable the linkage of scientific and traditional local knowledge, while simultaneously supporting a co-learning process towards sustainable development. To this end, a joint-thread of research/training activities will be set up for researchers from Brazil (States of Pará & Amazonas) participating to Training activities in EU and EU researchers seconded to Brazil within Case Study Workshops, with short exchanges (1 month) for senior and longer exchanges (2-3 months) for junior investigators, for a total of about 150 person months within 3 a year’s period. Scientific achievements are reached through inter-connected trainings and field workshops in interaction with social actors, for the acquisition of new approaches to water treatment combined with social technologies, in a multi-disciplinary approach Programme(s) FP7-PEOPLE - Specific programme "People" implementing the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007 to 2013) Thème(s) FP7-PEOPLE-2013-IRSES - Marie Curie Action "International Research Staff Exchange Scheme" Appel à propositions FP7-PEOPLE-2013-IRSES Voir d’autres projets de cet appel Régime de financement MC-IRSES - International research staff exchange scheme (IRSES) Coordinateur UNIVERSITA DEGLI STUDI ROMA TRE Contribution de l’UE € 117 600,00 Adresse VIA OSTIENSE 133 00154 Roma Italie Voir sur la carte Région Centro (IT) Lazio Roma Type d’activité Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Contact administratif Barbara Cafini (Dr.) Liens Contacter l’organisation Opens in new window Site web Opens in new window Coût total Aucune donnée Participants (2) Trier par ordre alphabétique Trier par contribution de l’UE Tout développer Tout réduire LEEDS BECKETT UNIVERSITY Royaume-Uni Contribution de l’UE € 105 000,00 Adresse ROSE BOWL 510 PORTLAND WAY LS1 3HB LEEDS Voir sur la carte Région Yorkshire and the Humber West Yorkshire Leeds Type d’activité Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Contact administratif Imma Zoppi (Ms.) Liens Contacter l’organisation Opens in new window Site web Opens in new window Coût total Aucune donnée UNIVERSITAT AUTONOMA DE BARCELONA Espagne Contribution de l’UE € 92 400,00 Adresse EDIF A CAMPUS DE LA UAB BELLATERRA CERDANYOLA V 08193 Cerdanyola Del Valles Voir sur la carte Région Este Cataluña Barcelona Type d’activité Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Contact administratif Queralt Gonzalez Matos (Ms.) Liens Contacter l’organisation Opens in new window Site web Opens in new window Coût total Aucune donnée
